I was on Lipitor last year for about three months . After reporting to my physician that I was experiencing left facial numbness, left neck pain, numerous joint pain,locking of my middle fingers, severe muscle pain in both calf areas, The lipitor, was discontinued and I was started on Vytorin. Needless to say My condition got worse. I could barely lift my arms, I had extreme pain in my left hip and it was painful and difficult to walk. I stopped taking the Vytorin. I had a MRI of My cerviaal neck, with no gross finding, My lab tests were essentially normal except cholesterol level. My condition has improved except the lingering muscle pain in both upper arms and left hip pain. I will never take statin medication again. I also, stopped my Diovan two days ago, I am feeling so much better. Plan to go natural remedy from now on.
